Here's the updated review:…read more If you're in New Paltz and craving a great burger, Burger Box is definitely worth a visit! My husband and I stopped by for lunch, and we both left impressed. I ordered the Spicy Blue, which had the perfect balance of heat and bold blue cheese flavor. It was juicy, fresh, and cooked perfectly. My husband went with the Burger Box signature burger, and he absolutely loved it. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients and the attention to detail in every bite. One thing I really appreciated is that they also have a kids' menu, making it a great spot for families. I've also been here several times with friends, and every single one of them has loved it too. It's one of those places that's consistently delicious no matter who you bring. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, the staff is friendly, and it's clear they take pride in using fresh, local ingredients. Whether you're a local or just visiting the beautiful town of New Paltz, Burger Box is a place I'd happily return to again and again. Highly recommend!

Still as amazing as ever! I wanted to update my review because the burger we had tonight (which…read morewas the burger of the month) was straight fire!!! And I feel like it deserves to be said. I don't know how they keep coming up with such incredible burgers but they hit it out of the park month after month. Where is food network at?! Diners, Drive ins, and Dives...hello?!! Why has no one filmed this establishment yet and when will they come out with their own burger cook book!? Also to note, the staff was extremely friendly and awesome! I met one of the co owners and she was just so incredibly kind. Also we got dessert here for the first time. I am so mad I didn't take a picture but it was a crème brûlée cheesecake and it was incredible. If you have the room for it definitely order it you will not be disappointed!!!

I have been to both locations and while the Poughkeepsie restaurant has a nicer look to it and more space, the burgers in Wappingers somehow are way better still. Service, however, has room to improve. I usually get takeout from 21 Burgers, but with the amount of times I've had to wait twice as long as they originally said or they hadn't started my order even after I showed up and was waiting, I cannot give them 5 stars.

Quick breakfast after procedure at Vassar Hospital. X Benedict replaced with bacon instead of…read moreCanadian bacon and I had the eggs Benedict Florentine. We both wanted the home fries extra crispy. My sister checked in to see if they were made with onions. We were told that they were not so we went for it. Anyone who follows my reviews knows I have allergies to alliums so we made the point to let our waiter, Matt know. He was quite alert, and I believe made an effort to make sure that he communicated my allergy to the kitchen. It did not take long for our order to come out and it was stunning and massive. See the photograph. Unfortunately, my sister noted almost immediately that there was onion on the plate. How disappointing because it looked so good. We flagged down Matt to let him know. He was very apologetic and swept the plate away back to the kitchen returning a few minutes later to let me know that the hashbrowns were not an option. We replace those with french fries. Overall, the plate was returned about 10 minutes later and looked free of onions. The eggs were cooked the way we asked, and the french fries were crispy, although they appear to have been tossed in cornstarch or flour to make them crispy - that's a coating which I'm not fond of. All in all, the eggs were delicious and the portion size could have fed three people. We ordered a couple of desserts to take away. Grand total was about $50. Yikes. Add the tip and you're up to $65 for breakfast. I recognized that this was a fancier breakfast and not eggs over very easy, etc. but $50 for two breakfast and two desserts two beverages. That's a lot. Even at the price of groceries these days, $65 still goes a long way in the breakfast category. The ambience is classic diner and very clean the service was quite attentive, friendly, and professional although we did have to flag Matt down a couple of times. I don't think he was distracted, I think it was more his workflow. The loss of the star is because I was served something I was allergic to. That's not really excusable, but they did apologize. I am convinced that he advised the kitchen of my allergy but before finalizing my order, a trip to the kitchen to verify about whether onions or garlic was in any of the food would have been appreciated

The food; however; was disappointing. The chicken is cut thin and cooked well so it's dried up. There's not enough tzatziki sauce to fix it. The fries were nice and hot so that was good. My friend ordered breakfast and it was just okay. She had been there the day before and it was much better. I guess this is a hit or miss. No worth the gamble with so many other yummy places to visit.

The decor may have changed over the years, but the food has definitely not taken a step back. The hanger steak special was honestly one of the best meals I've had in a long time.

Service was great too -- very attentive, always checking in for refills, and never disappearing on the tables. That's hard to find nowadays. Keep it up -- I'll definitely be back. If you haven't been yet, add it to your list!

The hostess brought us over to a table that needed cleaning and the floor under it, needed sweeping as well. We sat ourselves at the next table that was clean. I don't know how she could miss the mess on the floor. Our waiter took our orders - for me a medium rare burger with a side of onion rings. She ordered the deluxe burger; which comes with french fries and three onion rings, also medium rare. When they eventually came out, both burgers were beyond well done and cold!!! Then our waiter disappeared! I say waiter because I had to wait around for him to eventually be summoned from back in the kitchen by someone who didn't look old enough to be behind the bar. He looked at me like I was making it up. I cut the burger open and it was obvious it was overcooked! He asked if I wanted it replaced?! Sorry for the inconvenience, but it's not what I ordered! What do you think - was in my thought bubble. He never came by to refill the coffee, or ask how everything was? When the bill came, I was charged for the deluxe burger & for side of onion rings. What I ordered was a plain burger with a side of onion rings. The waiter "explained" that's how the computer figures it out. I mentioned to my lunch partner that the boss must be off, today. Everything seemed to be going downhill. It's rarely like that. It'll be a while before we go back, after that slap in the face. This wasn't our first and only meal there. We've been there dozens of times.

I…read morefollowed the Waze directions and it brought me to a parking lot but I was initially confused because there was no sign of the business on the outside. We asked a bystander and he directed us inside the Academy. The place is not your typical joint. It almost feels like a venue with small vendors. The burgers and fries were a good portion but kinda greasy. I ordered the wings and they had a good taste and I liked the dill sauce on the side. It was something different although I think I would have preferred it thicker. Overall the place was descent, it does resemble Smashburger and the staff was very friendly and accommodating.
